Domaine Grand Veneur

Domaine Grand Veneur is a renowned Chateauneuf du Pape estate run by the skilful Alaine Jaume and his two sons. Alain is famous for his excellent White Chateauneuf but he also has a small parcel of Viognier, illegal in Chateauneuf Blanc, hence it's lowly Côtes de Rhône AC. The Jaume family have been making wine here since 1826 and still own the same vineyards. Some of the vines are now over 100 years old. Christophe Jaume is the sixth generation of his family to make wine at this domaine. Covering nearly 50 hectares.
Apricot, peach and floral on the nose. On the palate a satisfying minerality refreshes you. Medium bodied with a real hit of lemon zest.
Drink with Pork, Chicken or Turkey
Vinified in stainless steel allowing the grapes to stay fresh aromatic and true to their varietal characteristics. Yields are kept low using green harvesting during summer meaning only the quality grapes are used. With the Winery certified organic, the juice is clarified with natural sedimentation.
